Rotate and hand back credentials cleanly at the end
When an engagement ends, loose credentials are a liability. SecretWolf hands rotated logins back as one-time links and records the return — so you can prove access was closed out, not left lingering in an inbox.
Close out access with proof
The last credential you send a departing client is the one most likely to linger. This is how it doesn't — and how you can prove it.
Hand rotated credentials back cleanly
When you rotate a shared login at the end of an engagement, send the client the new credential as a one-time link — no final password left sitting in a thread.
Prove access was closed out
The audit trail records which credentials were handed back and when, so you can evidence a clean exit rather than take it on trust.
Revoke anything still outstanding
Sent a link that hasn't been opened yet? Revoke it before it's viewed, so a credential in flight can be pulled the moment the relationship ends.
Ask the client to return their copies
Send a branded request form for any credentials the client holds on your systems, so offboarding collects them back through an encrypted channel.
Export the record for the file
Export the offboarding audit to CSV for your compliance file or the client's — a durable record of what was returned, without keeping the secrets themselves.
Short-lived by default
Offboarding links self-destruct on first view or expiry, so the last credential you send a departing client can't linger.
Questions we hear
Why not just email the client the new password?
Email keeps a copy of the credential in two mailboxes indefinitely. A one-time link is destroyed once the client reads it, and you get a logged, timestamped record that the handover happened.
Can we prove we handed everything back?
Yes. Every send, verification and view is logged as metadata and exports to CSV — evidence of a clean offboarding for your records or the client's security review.
What if a credential link is never opened?
You can revoke a one-time link before it's viewed, and links expire on a deadline you set — so nothing you send stays live longer than the engagement.
Does the audit log keep the old credentials?
No. The audit log stores only metadata — who, what label, and when — never the credential itself. The secret payload is hard-deleted on view or expiry.
